Title: Microfabricated devices and method of manufacturing the same using polymer gel
Inventor: BEEBE DAVID J
IPC: G12B1/00
Filed: 2000-07-21
Granted: 2007-05-29
Abstract: Microfabricated devices and methods of manufacturing the devices are disclosed. The devices are manufactured from a substrate having microscale fluid channels, and polymerizing a polymerizable mixture in the channels to form stimuliresponsive operating components of the device. The operating components can be functional or structural components. The method of manufacture obviates the traditional assembly of microscale components to form a device because the microscale components are formed in situ or within the device. The microscale components are constructed from polymer gels and said polymer gels are utilized in the method to provide the microscale components.

Abstract: Dans les installations d'énergie éolienne, on utilise actuellement pour certaines pièces un système d'alimentation de secours par des accumulateurs, notamment des accumulateurs au plomb, pour que l'installation d'énergie éolienne puisse être amenée dans une position telle qu'aucun dommage n'affecte l'installation d'énergie éolienne en cas de panne de courant. Or, les accumulateurs au plomb présentent l'inconvénient d'être relativement lourds et très encombrants sans compter qu'ils sont souvent chargeables et déchargeables de façon limitée. De plus, les caractéristiques de chargement et de déchargement des accumulateurs au plomb diminuent avec le temps, et les accumulateurs nécessitent un entretien assez coûteux, ce qui entraîne une augmentation du coût d'une installation d'énergie éolienne ou de son fonctionnement. Pour remédier à ces inconvénients, on utilise comme dispositif de stockage un accumulateur de condensateur pour l'énergie électrique au lieu d'un accumulateur d'une installation d'énergie éolienne.

Abstract: An improved base station which cancels the effects of known fixed interference sources produces a signal substantially free from the interference sources thereby increasing total channel capacity. The adaptive interference canceler system includes a main antenna for receiving signals from other communication stations and at least one directional antenna directed toward an interference source. The main and directional antennas are coupled to the adaptive canceler, which weights signals received by the directional antennas and sums the weighted signals to produce a cancellation signal. The adaptive canceler subtracts the cancellation signal from the signals received by the main antenna to provide an output signal substantially free from the interference generated by the one or more known interference sources.

Filed: 2003-01-06
Granted: 2009-07-14
Abstract: The present invention provides a colorimetric method that can perform a simple and reliable analysis in a short time. The method includes transferring an electron from an analyte to a coloring reagent that produces color by reduction via a mediator by using an oxidoreductase and performing qualitative or quantitative analysis of the analyte by measuring color produced in the coloring reagent. The enzyme reaction of this method is a single stage reaction, and the color production reaction occurs via the mediator. Therefore, the measurement can be performed in a short time.      Since this reaction requires neither hydrogen peroxide nor oxygen,,the measured values are highly reliable.
